BODY OF WILSON RESTSJN TOMB OFFICIAL WASHINGTON AND NA TION PAY TRIBUTE TO EX PRE8IDENT. PRESIDENT GOOLIDGE PRESENT Thousands Line the Way From Home to Cathedral to View 8lmple Fu neral Cortage Pats. Washington. ? Woodrow Wilson has passed forever from the world stage where once he towered, a command ing figure. In the sacred privacy of the home, last rites were said ? as simple as , tho faith of the man himself In the goodness of God. Only the presence of the Preslde-nt and a few who were his colleagues In days of greatness, and the quiet thousands waiting out side under Wintry skies for a humble share in the last leave-taking, mark ed this as the funeral of a great man. There was more formal tone to the cathedral service which followed. There in the chapel that gives en trance to the vault of entombment wer? gathered the dignitaries of gov ernments and many men of place and power in America. Organ notes and i the pealing voices of the choir added j a touch of ceremony to the brief re- ' ligious exercises. Rut, at the very i last, the dead passed again into the I keeping of his nearest and dearest, I who alone might watch over the en tombment and hear the resigned faith | of the committal service uttered. The ) Nation's share in that last moment j was only to stand in silent reverence i outside while the tomb received the ! keeping of an honored American. During the funeral service, the busy life of the Nation's capital stood at | pause as elsewhere over America men j did last honor to the dead. The drum- I ming guns of sorrow echoed dully i from the distant hills, where Fort Meyer lies, guns that bad heralded the dark, cloud-wrapped coming of day ; with the somber clamor of saluto to a dead commander. Wherever tho flag | flow above ship or fort, half-masted in | token of tho Nation's loss ,the guns j proclaimed the sorrow of a -people. I About the stricken home and at the i cathedral were massed the flowers and j wreaths that came pouring in from ; every nearby city and town. There j wero formal pieces and many simple j clusters of tho fragrant blossoms. A story of the greatness of the man | whose late earthly moment they mark- , ed was wri,tten on the cards'. There j were great names among thorn, those ' of Kings and Presidents and of others I in whose keeping today is the destiny j of civilization. Among the offerings were some i from comrades who served in the i great war under the fallen chieftian, I served In tho fighting ranks of tho Nation. They boro such legends as "To' Our Comrade," "To Our Chief," and "From His Comrades." The love liness of the blooms will not fade un noted. for the grief-bowed widow has willed that these tributes to Woodrow j Wilson shall go out to Walter Reed ? Hospital after the ceremony to carry their message of hope and cheer to the wounded men there, as a last tok en of remembrance from tho chieftian who has passed on into oternlty. President and Mrs. Coolldge left the White House 15 minutes before the funeral hour, and whon they arrived, the little honor guard of sailors, sol diers and marines, selected to perform tho last ministrations for the dead war chief, wero drawn up In silent hanks before the door of the home. Tho eight soldiers and tho olght ma rines wore the field grey of tho war days, and a like number of bluejack ets comprised in the little group were dressed as thoy were when they served their country in tho great war fleet. An hour before the service, at tbo home was to begin, several thousand persons wore gathered in tho street which was lined on either side by ma rines and infantrymen. Thoy had come to g'<t a fleeting glimpse of the ' start of the funeral procession to Mount St. Albans.

There was no extended warning; Just "a rumble like a thousand auto; mobiles roaring down a distant road,1' one survivor said. Then the leaping black wave of death engulfed them, battering its victims against the walls. Night found the shaft opening ] crowded with scores of wives and , mothers and children who stood, some i in frantic tears, othors dry-eyed and , staring, ^as helpless as were the men | about them to snatch from the murky waters the bodies of their loved ones. Most of the victims were youqg men, many of them married, and most of ' the children that took up the sorrow ! ful vigil with their mothers were tiny i tots, clutching in wonderment at their j mother's skirts.
